Saw my first Alfa spider yesterday on a run out. In a really nice blue, it looked stunning.

What's wierd is that I thought the Pics of the Brera looked stunning but in the flash was shit. This seems to have done the opposite trick. You should check one out, they are one nice looking car. Just would never use my own money to buy one.

 

Have to agree.
I saw a Brera close up over the weekend, and was amazed at just how large it's ar$e end was. I'm sure it wasn't that large when I saw it at Goodwood last year.

Not seen any photos of the new spider, but I saw one on the road recently and it's very easy on the eye. Alfa's normally are. Don't know anythign about the performance of it, but I don't think that's the point tbh.

 

Alfa have too many FWD & diesels in their range for them to be an aspirational brand to me - pity really. I did like the Alfa GT on show at Goodwood - poor power to weight though.

 

Unfortunately from what I have read it seems that the Alfa is crap to drive which is a real shame as I think it is now the best looking 'affordable' roadster on the road.

I was a bit gutted to be honest, as I wouldn't mind getting an Alfa as a company car - I personally would never buy one!

The Brera 3.2 is quite cheap on our car scheme, so I can only imagine that it has been heavily discounted by Alfa to our lease company.

 

Hmm, where have I seen that green before;




Oh yeah;

 

That's the old spider. we're talking about the new one.

 

SO, at least its a picture

Go on show us yours....

 

It doesn't really look good in pics, but looks better in the flesh.

 

I can't handle that front overhang.

Or the GM frankenstein-FWD.

Another Alfa you WANT to like.

 

It looks nice in the flesh. But why won't they stick RWD in it?
